<a name="gexap"></a><h2>Tutorial Example Directory Structure</h2>
<p><a name="indexterm-156"></a><a name="indexterm-157"></a>To facilitate iterative development and keep application source separate from compiled files, the tutorial
examples use the Java BluePrints application directory structure.</p>

<p>Each application module has the following structure:</p>


<ul><li><p><tt>build.xml</tt>: Ant build file</p>

</li>
<li><p><tt>src/java</tt>: Java source files for the module</p>

</li>
<li><p><tt>src/conf</tt>: configuration files for the module, with the exception of web applications</p>

</li>
<li><p><tt>web</tt>: web pages, style sheets, tag files, and images (web applications only)</p>

</li>
<li><p><tt>web/WEB-INF</tt>: configuration files for web applications (web applications only)</p>

</li>
<li><p><tt>nbproject</tt>: NetBeans project files</p>

</li></ul>
<p>Examples that have multiple application modules packaged into an EAR file have submodule
directories that use the following naming conventions:</p>


<ul><li><p><tt></tt><i>example-name</i><tt>-app-client</tt>: application clients</p>

</li>
<li><p><tt></tt><i>example-name</i><tt>-ejb</tt>: enterprise bean JAR files</p>

</li>
<li><p><tt></tt><i>example-name</i><tt>-war</tt>: web applications</p>

</li></ul>
<p>The Ant build files (<tt>build.xml</tt>) distributed with the examples contain targets to create
a <tt>build</tt> subdirectory and to copy and compile files into that directory; a
<tt>dist</tt> subdirectory, which holds the packaged module file; and a <tt>client-jar</tt> directory, which holds
the retrieved application client JAR.</p>

<p>The directory <tt></tt><i>tut-install</i><tt>/examples/bp-project</tt> contains additional Ant targets called by the <tt>build.xml</tt> file targets.</p>

<p>Some Ant targets for web examples will open the example URL in
a browser if one is available. This happens automatically on Windows systems. If
you are running on a UNIX system, you may want to modify a
line in the <tt></tt><i>tut-install</i><tt>/examples/bp-project/build.properties</tt> file. Remove the comment character from the line
specifying the <tt>default.browser</tt> property and specify the path to the command that invokes
a browser. If you do not make the change, you can open
the URL in the browser yourself.</p>
